Really requires that you learn to hand code your ASP, and use a 3rd Party ASP Upload component,
which one depends on what you host offers or is willing to install on their servers.

You need Frontpage 2002 or later, and a server with the Frontpage extensions
supporting the upload file feature. (it doesn't just "do it" - it must be
supported - and your ISP setting permissions to allowing you to do that.
 
Do you know of any 3rd party upload components? I've been trying to get this to work for about a month. I just can't seem to get the file to populate the db.
 
The file is not added to the database, just stored in a folder within your web. In general, you
really do not want to store the images or documents in your database, just a link to them.

Check with your host to see if they have a ASP File Upload component installed or which one they are
willing to install for you.

A host is free to enable or disable certain features of the extensions, so even if they have the
latest version doesn't mean you can use all of the features.

Thanks for your help. I found a hosting company that says they support that. You'd think that
most would have the new extenisons, etc but that doens't seem to be the case.
